I think fans over react to the terms being used. I'm sure out of 4 hockey executives one of them will bring up the downside of being in the first lane.
Agree.

The only thing I can really think about why ownership would want to muzzle the use of the phrase re-build is that it might push them into committing to truly large investments like say... construction of a new arena.

That ship is sailing, so I truly don't understand the aversion to using the term.
